Dude...y'all are dumb as hell. If this isn't written by AI, I'll eat my hat.
This dumbshit posted an article about something that confused a searchable VC firm called "Matrix". This has zero to do with the Matrix.org that I think(?) it is intended to talk about.
Simple proof: the word "venture" is mentioned just once in the entire post, and it can't dig deeper into any other claims it makes.
This is simply a post confusing "Matrix Partners", and using readily available information about that company, and trying to transpose it on Matrix.org which is not the same thing.
AI has truly killed the internet.
The article shortens venture capital to VC. It also didn't confuse the Matrix Foundation with a VC firm of the same name, it's talking about Element (formerly Riot). Like, the article says this in pretty simple English, I'm genuinely confused how you could've missed it:
We got that. It literally provides no backstory or proof to any claims made though.
Like you just quoted something...okay, so if that's the case, links, because it would be publicly known.
Now you're just moving the goal posts. You claimed the article was AI generated and assumed it was talking about a separate entity also called Matrix, when neither of those things are true. I also didn't 'just quote something', I quoted the above article.
But fine:
Man, I hope that guy has a tasty hat.
It seems in line with everything mentioned here:

This being the sad outcome, 5 years later.
Hopefully you're wearing a cinnabon on your head.
6 years ago, first of all.
Second, this project has transitioned literally everything away from that.
It literally has no relevant point.
Just someone ranting against shit they known nothing about, your link going further to prove that point.
